    UUID Property (XdsDocument)
    In This Topic
    The globally unique identifier of the document
    Syntax
    Public Property UUID As String
    Dim instance As XdsDocument
    Dim value As String
     
    instance.UUID = value
     
    value = instance.UUID
    public string UUID {get; set;}
    public:
    property String^ UUID {
       String^ get();
       void set (    String^ value);
    }
    Remarks

    This property corresponds to the XDSDocumentEntry.entryUUID attribute

    This ID may be assigned by either by Source, Repository, or Registry

    There is often confusion between this value and the UniqueID, and the Technical framework notes:

    "The globally unique identifier (may be assigned by either by Source, Repository, or Registry) is primarily intended for use as a document registry management identifier. It is not meant to be an external reference for XDS Documents (e.g. in links within other documents). The uniqueId is meant for that purpose so that such links remain valid beyond the XDS Affinity Domain"

    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
